(10 acres) x (43,560 square ft per acre) = 435,600 square feet
Volume = (435,600 sq ft) x (5 ft) / (27 cubic ft per cubic yard) =
80,666 and 2/3 cubic yards

There are 13,500 cubic yards in 10 acres that are 5 feet deep. This calculation is based on the formula for volume: length x width x depth. Since 1 acre is equivalent to 4840 square yards, and the volume of 5 feet of soil per acre is 1800 cubic yards, the total is 13,500 cubic yards for 10 acres.
To convert square yards to cubic yards, you need to multiply by the depth. In this case, 440 square yards at a depth of 1 foot would be equivalent to 440 cubic yards.
You would need approximately 2.5 cubic yards of gravel to cover a 12' by 15' area at a depth of 2 inches.
I cu yd = 27 cu ft you cannot get square feet from cubic yards as square feet is area and yards volume - you need to know how deep the 400 sq feet is - in other words, volume. For example 400 sq feet that is 1 feet deep is 400 cubic feet; then divide by 27 to get cubic yards
To convert 400 square feet at 5 inches deep to cubic yards, first convert depth to yards (5 inches = 5/36 yards). Then, multiply 400 sq ft by the depth in yards to get the volume in cubic feet (400 * 5/36 = 55.56 cubic feet). Finally, convert cubic feet to cubic yards (1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet), giving you approximately 2.06 cubic yards.
To convert cubic feet to cubic yards, divide the number of cubic feet by 27. Since there are 27 cubic feet in 1 cubic yard, this conversion allows you to determine the equivalent volume in cubic yards.
